Have there been any changes recently on the 61" PS? I have been wanting a PS for while, but now im at the point that I kinda need it now. Gonna try to call around to the dealers today and see if anyone has a 61 in stock. Finally, is the cut quality on the 61 the same as the 48 and 52, how about power in the 61? Is the Kawasaki enough to handle wet nkrthern grasses?

Cut quality on a 52" is awesome if its every week mowing. I have lots of every 2 week customers and with any kind of moisture in the grass you might as well have a 2,000 homeowners model, its that bad.... The deck can't process wet/damp clippings at the rate the grass is growing this year...
